From Release note:

First version. It's a working beta, don't install on production server. Use at your own risk.

Delete module folder and via phpmyadmin delete row of module in cms_module

Test in local first

Sorry for late, but I find this message only today....

This problem depends on file permission inherited from your host provider. If you check on your server all works perfectly.

To solve your problem just create backup dir ( admin/backups/tgz/ ) via admin panel or via ftp.

For security purpose use another name for "admin" dir (eg. ADmIN2343_asadf343 ) and protect all dir and subdir with htaccess.

Does not directly address your immediate problem, but I couldn't install it either.
My work around was to go into phpmyadmin and export the database for the CMSMS website as a SQL statement.
It worked pretty good, it saved everything I needed.

I moved 10 or 12 CMSMS sites from one server to another that afternoon. I just installed CMSMS on the new web server, then, dropped the tables in the database from the new installation, ran the exported SQL and I was in business.

Worked real good, except that TABS were converted to some strange character and I had a little content clean up to do. I think this may have had to do witih my export options, not sure tho.

Hope that helps a little.

FileBackup module wasn't designed to save your mysql database  It saves your entire CMSMS filesystem in a tar.gz file. You need also to backup your db (with other tools) if you want a complete backup.

If you use only phpmyadmin  you're saving only your mysql db, so it's a partial backup.
Take a look here for a brief explanation of backup.

Filebackup will not install if you have MySQLDump installed. This is because MySQLDump already has created the directory Backups under Admin.

A workaround is =>Rename admin\backups - install Filebackup  - Copy files from renamed folder to admin\backups.

Good luck.

Hi all,
FileBackup v0.1 was bugged while creating backup dir. In FileBackup v0.2 bug is fixed.

Backup dir is: admin/backup/tgz
